Description
本发明涉及通信用滤波类器件领域,特别涉及一种利用密封环中增加附加金属化通孔结构接地改善隔离度的双工器。
随着当今无线通讯技术的飞速发展,小型化便携式终端设备的应用也日益广泛,因而对于高性能、小尺寸的射频前端模块和器件的需求也日益迫切。近年来,以FBAR为基础的滤波器、双工器等滤波器件越来越为市场所青睐。一方面是因为其插入损耗低、过渡特性陡峭、选择性高、功率容量高、抗静电放电(ESD)能力强等优异的电学性能,另一方面也是因为其体积小、易于集成的特点所致。
当前,面对越来越严苛的频率资源,要求射频前端的滤波器、双工器等频率选择性器件对于相邻频带的抑制水平也越来越高,FBAR器件也需要在这方面进行改进和提高,既要提高临带抑制和隔离度水平,又不能对插损有较大影响,同时还要尽可能不增加芯片或器件的整体尺寸。
常见的方法是在并联支路上增加大感值的电感改变谐振器谐振频率来增加临带抑制,或是在某个或某几个谐振器上增加额外的电容或电感来增加notch点从而改善临带抑制。但这些方法都需要增加额外的电抗性元件,而且这些元件的取值通常都是比较大的,要在芯片上实现很困难。如果通过在基板上绕线或是在芯片外增加分立元件的方式来实现,则必然会增加基板的层数和尺寸,从而不可避免的导致滤波器或双工器整体尺寸的增加。而且,实际中增加的绕线或分立元件都不是理想的,其引入的损耗都会叠加到滤波器上,导致滤波器整体插损的恶化。
综上可知,上述方法在改善临带抑制和隔离度的同时,会导致芯 片损耗的增加和芯片整体尺寸的大幅增加。
因此,如何设计一种利用将两片分别制作的滤波器晶圆键合在一起形成的单颗芯片构成的双工器,同时具有较好的收发隔离度,仍是待解决的技术问题。
发明内容
有鉴于此,本发明提供一种双工器,以达到较好的隔离度特性。

下面结合附图与实施例对本发明作进一步说明。
图1是现有基于FBAR实现的双工器的基本结构示意图。该双工器主要包括基板SU、保护帽cap、接收滤波器芯片TX和发送滤波器芯片RX。基板SU可以为双层或者多层结构,一方面起到承载作用,另一方面也可以起到电连接作用。保护帽cap可以基于硅衬底制作,用于保护芯片上的有效图形区域。接收滤波器芯片TX和发送滤波器芯片RX可以分别为FBAR工艺制作,芯片上包含了用FBAR工艺制作的谐振器组成的滤波器结构,有效图形区域位于接收滤波器芯片TX和发射滤波器RX芯片面向保护帽cap的一面。
图2是从图1中X方向向下看的视图,并假设接收滤波器芯片TX和发射滤波器芯片RX的上表面透明后,看到的位于接收滤波器芯片TX和发射滤波器芯片RX的下表面的FBAR有效图形区域。图中灰色的部分是FBAR谐振器的示意图。图2示出了有效图形区域周围具有一圈金属密封圈结构SR,保护帽cap上的对应位置也有同样的金属密封圈结构,该金属密封圈结构SR起到的主要作用是将接收滤波器芯片TX、发射滤波器芯片RX和保护帽cap键合为一个整体并将有效图形区域密封保护起来。滤波器结构中所需要的电连接则通过金属化通孔VA从图形区域引出并导通到保护膜cap下表面上的相应金属焊盘上。
图3中给出了图1中保护帽cap的细节结构。保护帽cap上的金属密封结构分为SR_TX和SR_RX两个独立的部分,分别对应于接收滤波器芯片TX和发射滤波器芯片RX各自的金属密封环SR。
图4是从图1中的Y方向看过去的侧向视图,从这张图中可以更清楚地理解图1和图2中的结构。在图4中可以看到,接收滤波器芯片TX和发射滤波器芯片RX两颗芯片的金属密封圈结构SR与cap上对应位置的金属密封圈SR_RX和SR_TX相键和,将有效图形区域密封在金属密封圈结构形成的密封空间之内,如图中灰色区域所示。图 形区域需要的电连接通过金属化通孔VA引出到保护帽cap下表面的金属焊盘PD上,然后通过焊球BP同基板SU上对应的金属焊盘LD相连接。基板SU的下表面通常会有大面积的接地金属图形GND。
上述即为基于目前现有技术所实现的FBAR双工器结构。这种结构下,TX和RX芯片上的所有电信号都是通过通孔VA和焊球BP导通到基板SU上的。因为TX和RX两颗芯片的VA和BP相互之间没有任何屏蔽措施,所以他们相互之间会产生电磁耦合和相互串扰,在接收滤波器和发射滤波器之间形成信号的相互干扰和泄漏,因而造成接收通道和发射通道之间的隔离度和相互抑制变差。本专利提出的方法就是专门针对和改善这方面问题的。
本发明实施例的一种双工器,包括基底SU、位于基底之上的保护帽cap、位于保护帽cap之上的发射滤波器芯片TX和接收滤波器芯片RX,其中,基底SU的底部具有接地金属图形GND;发射滤波器芯片TX的底表面具有第一金属密封顶圈SR1;接收滤波器芯片RX的底表面具有第二金属密封顶圈SR2。保护帽cap的顶表面具有金属密封底圈SR_TRX。金属密封底圈SR_TRX包括金属密封底圈第一区域、金属密封底圈第二区域和金属密封底圈第三区域,其中金属密封底圈第一区域与第一金属密封顶圈SR1对应,金属密封底圈第二区域与第二金属密封顶圈SR2对应,金属密封底圈第三区域连接金属密封底圈第一区域和金属密封底圈第二区域。双工器还具有多个附加接地屏蔽结构。每个附加接地屏蔽结构由上至下依次包括:贯穿保护帽cap的附加金属化通孔VAS、中部电连接结构、和贯穿基底SU的埋底电连接结构,其中附加金属化通孔VAS的顶部与金属密封底圈SR_TRX的第三区域相接触,埋底电连接结构的底部与接地金属图形GND相接触。
具体地,中部电连接结构可以为焊球BPS。埋底电连接结构可以为基底金属化通孔。另外需要说明的是,通常附加金属化通孔VAS底部以及埋底电连接结构的顶部还设置有金属薄片结构,以便于它们与中部电连接结构进行连接。
可选地,多个附加金属化通孔的位置满足如下条件:多个附加金属化通孔的垂直投影位于发射滤波器芯片与接收滤波器芯片二者之间。
可选地,多个附加金属化通孔的位置满足如下条件:多个附加金属化通孔的垂直投影位于发射滤波器芯片与接收滤波器芯片二者之间以及二者左右两侧。“左右两侧”的具体含义是指:假如定义发射滤波器芯片与接收滤波器芯片为一左一右水平排列,则发射滤波器芯片的左边即为左侧,接收滤波器芯片的右边即为右侧。
可选地,多个附加金属化通孔的位置满足如下条件:多个附加金属化通孔的垂直投影位于发射滤波器芯片与接收滤波器芯片二者之间以及二者前后两侧。“前后两侧”的具体含义是指:假如定义发射滤波器芯片与接收滤波器芯片为一左一右水平排列,然后作外包矩形框,该外包矩形框的非左右侧边的两条边即前侧边和后侧边,如此可以确定“前后两侧”。
可选地,多个附加金属化通孔的位置满足如下条件:附加金属化通孔位于发射滤波器芯片或者接收滤波器芯片本身各个接地的点连接之间需要增加屏蔽的位置。
可选地,多个附加金属化通孔的截面为矩形、三角形、圆形、椭圆形或凸多边形。只要实际工艺可实现的形状都是可以的。
本实施例提出的双工器的电路结构有多种形式,具体如下所示:
实施例一
现有技术中保护帽cap上的金属密封圈SR本来是分为SR_TX和SR_RX两个独立的部分,分别用于和发射滤波器芯片TX和接收滤波器芯片RX上对应的金属密封圈SR键合。
图5和图6分别是本发明实施例一双工器的保护帽的示意图和剖面示意图。如图5所示,将原本分开的SR_TX和SR_RX连接起来, 变成一个整体金属密封底圈SR_TRX,并在该金属密封底圈SR_TRX上增加若干附加金属化通孔VAS。在现有双工器上进行上述改进后,图4中的双工器剖面图就变成如图6所示的双工器剖面图了。如图6所示,发射滤波器芯片TX对应的第一金属密封顶圈SR1和接收滤波器芯片RX对应的第二金属密封顶圈SR2通过和保护帽cap上的金属密封底圈SR_TRX相键合之后,形成了一个整体的金属密封结构。同时,金属密封底圈SR_TRX上的附加金属化通孔VAS和保护帽cap上的相应金属导体图形PDS相连接,金属导体图形PDS再通过焊球BPS和基板SU上的接地金属焊盘GND相连接。这样就相当于用金属密封底圈SR_TRX、相应金属导体图形PDS、焊球BPS、接地金属焊盘GND共同形成了一个屏蔽结构,如图6中的灰色部分所示。该屏蔽结构在发射滤波器芯片TX和接收滤波器芯片RX的金属化通孔VA和焊球BP之间起到隔离作用,能有效降低它们之间的电磁耦合和相互干扰,从而改善接收通道和发射通道之间的相互抑制和隔离度。由于并未对原始设计的谐振器有效图形区域做任何其他修改,所以不会对通带性能有任何不利的影响。
实施例二
图7和图8分别是本发明实施例二双工器的保护帽的示意图和剖面示意图。
图7与图5相比,除了图5所示的两个芯片中间位置的设置附加金属化通孔VAS和金属导体图形PDS组成的屏蔽结构之外,还在金属化密封底圈SR_TRX的左右边缘位置也增加了同样的附加金属化通孔VAS和金属导体图形PDS组成的屏蔽结构,其剖面如图8中的灰色部分所示。这样可以进一步增加金属密封圈接地的屏蔽效果。
实施例三
图9和图10分别是本发明实施例三双工器的保护帽的示意图和剖面示意图。
图9与图5相比,除了图5所示的两个芯片中间位置的设置附加金属化通孔VAS和金属导体图形PDS组成的屏蔽结构之外,还在金属化密封底圈SR_TRX的前后边缘位置也增加了同样的附加金属化通孔 VAS和金属导体图形PDS组成的屏蔽结构,其剖面如图10中的灰色部分所示。这样可以进一步增加金属密封圈接地的屏蔽效果。
实施例四
图11和图12分别是本发明实施例四双工器的保护帽的示意图和剖面示意图。
图11与图5相比,除了图5所示的两个芯片中间位置的设置附加金属化通孔VAS和金属导体图形PDS组成的屏蔽结构之外,还在在发射滤波器芯片TX和接收滤波器芯片RX本身各个接地的电连接之间需要增加屏蔽的地方也加入附加金属化通孔VAS和金属导体图形PDS组成的屏蔽结构并同金属密封底圈SR_TRX相连,其剖面如图12中的灰色部分所示。这样可以进一步增加金属密封圈接地的屏蔽效果。因为这种情况下增加的附加金属化通孔VAS不一定在密封环边缘,所以在图中用间断的灰色表示。这样可以通过金属密封圈接地的屏蔽效果来改善发射滤波器芯片TX和接收滤波器芯片RX本身各个接地端口之间的耦合。
为了说明本发明实施例的实际效果,给出了一个双工器的设计实例。为了进行对比,对同一设计的双工器设计分别使用图4和图6,即分别使用现有技术和本发明提出技术,对二者进行对比。
图13为隔离度曲线对比图,粗线S1是传统双工器对应的曲线,细线S2是本发明实施例到的双工器对应的曲线。可以明显看出,在所关心的1740MHz~1780MHz和1810MHz~1850MHz两个频段范围内,S2的隔离度明显优于S1。由此可以说明,本专利给出的密封环改善隔离度的方法是具有明显效果的。
图14为传输特性曲线对比图,粗线S1是传统双工器对应的曲线,细线S2是本发明实施例到的双工器对应的曲线。可以看到在1740MHz~1780MHz和1810MHz~1850MHz两个频段范围内的相互抑制也同样得到了改善。
图15为通带放大曲线对比图,粗线S1是传统双工器对应的曲线,细线S2是本发明实施例到的双工器对应的曲线。可以看到两种设计方法得到的通带传输特性曲线没有区别,基本重合,说明本专利提出的 通过密封环改善隔离度的方法不会对通带性能产生任何不利影响。
上述虽然结合附图对本发明的具体实施方式进行了描述,但并非对本发明保护范围的限制,所属领域技术人员应该明白,在本发明的技术方案的基础上,本领域技术人员不需要付出创造性劳动即可做出的各种修改或变形仍在本发明的保护范围以内。
